A Group of Schools that has long offered one of the best educations in East Africa for children aged 18 months to 18 years, Hillcrest International Schools nurture each student’s growth and development in a dynamic learning environment. We are co-educational school offering the British Curriculum.

Offering a stimulating and caring learning environment for the first step to becoming confident and creative thinkers, Hillcrest Early Years (HEY) provides a kindergarten education to young children from the ages of 18 months to six years. Building from play-based settings towards a personalised approach to learning, HEY lays the foundations for the next stage of British Curriculum Preparatory School education.

HEY is set in its own attractive grounds next-door to the Preparatory School. Shared amenities include a swimming pool, a contemporary library, two well-equipped ICT laboratories, a music room, expansive sports fields and a wild nature trail. HEY enjoys a multicultural family atmosphere and a wide range of nationalities are represented by our children and teachers.

Our creative curriculum offers children experiences that support their senses, their individual learning styles and their personal, social and emotional development. Our educational approach is holistic, recognising the need to nurture each child’s individuality, while promoting respect and tolerance for others through loving pastoral care and partnerships with parents.
